Lookback: 2 years into the relationship

“my partner reacts poorly to my emotions”

My partner gets angry and distant when I cry, making me feel unheard and unloved

What I wish I knew
"he needs to work on his emotional support skills"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly with your partner about your emotional needs and boundaries"
